Re: explorer keeps crashing when network properties is entered



You might try netsh from a command prompt;

1 to set ip address and subnet, 2 to clear previous dns server ip's, 3 to
set primary dns server, 4 to set alt dns server, 5 to set ip address DHCP
assigned

1.) netsh interface ip set address name="Local Area Connection 2"
source=static addr=192.168.10.10 mask=255.255.255.0 gateway=none
2.) netsh interface ip delete dns name="Local Area Connection 2" addr=all
3.) netsh interface ip set dns name="Local Area Connection 2" source=static
addr=192.168.20.20
4.) netsh interface ip add dns name="Local Area Connection 2"
addr=192.168.30.30
5.) netsh interface ip set address name="Local Area Connection 2"
source=dhcp

Where "Local Area Connection 2" is the name of your connection. (watch for
line wrap)
